Malabrigo Rios
Malabrigo Rios is one of those yarns knitters and crocheters return to again and again—it’s soft, strong, and a joy to work with. Spun from 100% superwash merino wool, Rios is a worsted-weight yarn that balances luxury with practicality. Its smooth, plied construction gives excellent stitch definition, making it perfect for everything from cables and lace to simple stockinette.
Every skein of Rios is hand-dyed in small batches, which means no two skeins are ever exactly alike. This is part of the magic—but it also means a little planning is key:
-
Be sure to purchase enough yarn for your project at the start—dye lots can vary widely.
-
Alternate skeins every few rows if you’re working with more than one skein to ensure a beautifully blended fabric.
Whether you’re creating cozy sweaters, vibrant accessories, or heirloom-worthy gifts, Malabrigo Rios will wrap every stitch with warmth and color.
